Services include, but are not limited to, skipping timers (dungeons, Arena, quests), refreshing shops and purchasing gear and mounts.

Nearly all cases of a lost mushroom have been explained by expenditures, accidental or on purpose. If you feel you’ve lost a mushroom in err, please think for a second and try to recall if one of these transactions could have taken place.

The other main culprit of lost mushrooms is lag, which leads to most accidental expenditures.

These extraneous clicks can lead to refreshing a shop, assaulting a dungeon or various other -based activities if the mouse was in the correct location.
